Welcome to Ergo Physio. Ergo Physio is a physiotherapy practice based in South Kensington, West London. We are very close to Gloucester Road tube station. Amanda Stockton has over 30 years physiotherapy experience and welcomes new patients.
There are a range of health and safety hazards associated with the use of laptops. Some of these are similar to hazards associated with other display screen equipment. These include visual disorders, headaches, musculoskeletal disorders and stress. An employer may be required by law to carry out a workstation assessment.
Research has highlighted that the risks associated with laptop usage may be increased because design/configuration of laptops does not allow good ergonomic standards/guidelines to be achieved.
The design compromises of laptop computers make it more difficult to maintain a good posture while working. This can be improved with a workstation assessment - this is also one of the services I offer.
